Ready? Let's go!

NPH Can’t Finish a Sandwich
Jared Leto—uh, we mean Hedwig star Neil Patrick Harris—has lost 20 pounds for his new role, and on GMA, he joked about being “manorexic” and only eating a few bites of his lunch. Stop it, Neil. Finish that sandwich. It’s what Miss Hedwig would want.

James Franco Collects Ticket StubsOf Mice and Men star James Franco has yet another hobby we didn’t know about: He collects ticket stubs from every Broadway show he’s seen. Aww, that’s so cute! You know what's not as cute? Cursing out a critic on Instagram. (P.S. Need to talk? Call us. We’re here for you.)

Queen Will Rock You...Again
If you've ever wondered happens to Galileo, Scaramouche and their pals after the Queen jukebox musical We Will Rock You ends, you're in luck, because Brian May is working on a sequel. Does Meat get cooked? Does Adam Lambert star? Will we ever figure out the plot? Did we mention Adam Lambert?!

James Monroe Iglehart Makes Sh*t Up
How did Aladdin funny guy James Monroe Iglehart score the role of the Genie? By completely ignoring the script and making up his own lines at his audition, saying pretty much whatever he wanted. Guys, this is a really good thing to try when you audition for your high school play.

Steven Pasquale Does Carol Channing
We knew Bridges star Steven Pasquale has a great voice and looks fantastic with his shirt off, but did you know he can do impressions? On Side By Side, he channeled Mandy Patinkin, Carol Channing, Jim Carrey and a ton more. Quick, someone write a musical adaptation of The Mask! Pasek? Paul?

The Obamas Made Us Late
The President and First Lady had a date night last Friday, and instead of their usual trip to the Olive Garden, they decided it would be fun to see a Broadway show. Meanwhile, after struggling to get past the police barricades and blocked-off streets, every other ticketholder said “f*ck it” and went to the Olive Garden.
